Abstract | ||
Heptaminol base was formulated in four different suppository bases. The prepared suppositories were subjected to the usual quality-control tests, both when fresh and after shelf-storage for one year. The results of physical examination were so variable that a sharp conclusion to a preferred formula was not possible. However, studies of medicament dissolution revealed that quick and full-dose release of heptaminol was achieved from glycerogelatin-based suppositories. On the other hand, suppositories based with polyethylene glycols have shown a prolonged heptaminol dissolution rates. | ||
